Songkran - Thai New Year



















To walk through Bangla Street in Patong Beach without getting wet tonight, would be like walking through Sahara without getting sand in your shoes. Thai New Year is here, and the way they celebrate is to soak everybody and everything with water.
Big air-pressure water guns are being sold anywhere, and even the fire department has parked a big fire engine in the middle of Bangla Street to make sure nobody runs out of water.
I had a hard time keeping my camera reasonably dry!
